Did load the locales.squashfs (for Xenial Dog 32).......but can not find any menu entry .Where to change locales ?How to make it work ?
A while ago did manage to make them work .
But can not exactly remember how .

Thank you for the instructions! Worked. My dog now speaks German (in any case partial).
Slowly it becomes more and more as I imagine it!
I noticed now that no sound is heard.
How can I activate the speaker?
EDIT: Believe the sound goes now!

RE: cairo-dock message at start
At the right of "Remember this choice" there is checkbox (kind of invisible, but it's there) (theme bug ?)

There are only the two buttons for yes and no. There is no matter what I click! A selection button is not there and where should I then click?

For my Variomenü I have to edit the file in the is defined where on the desktop is a button. Can someone tell me how the name of this file and where to find it?
There is certainly a command to rebuild the desktop without going to the console?

Did I understand well that you said you don't want to display the message about opengl everytime ?
In that case, just on the right of "Remember this choice" (which probably now is in German for you) click with the mouse and you'll see small 'v' (checked) clicking again it will be unchecked, it's a bit inconvenient, I admit.
After you did check the checkbox, I'd recommend clicking No (no opengl), and you should not see the message again.

I have a completely separate menu organization.
With the Variomenu the buttons in the WBar stand for groups.
Each group can then have many programs.

For example, In the WBar the button for Internet pressed so I delete all buttons on the desktop except the buttons for the drives.
Then the new buttons for the Internet group are displayed on the Desktop.

Thus, many programs can be displayed in a structured manner. Otherwise, there are only two other ways to manage many programs:
1. You have all buttons for all Programs on the desktop which is very confusing
2. In a text menu where you must always search and work with sub-levels
In my Variomenu there are only two levels:
1. The group button
2. The program

Via the groups buttons I start a script for example scriptinternet.sh
This script overwrites the file in which the shown buttons are defined with the file which has the position and name of the buttons for Interent. Then I let the desktop rebuild. The extremely clear menu system is finished!

Of course there are still a few things like the installation of new programs on a page such as a new browser which also goes automatically.
But this is not a big problem!
Perhaps the Variomenü would be something as a module for the dogs?

In that case, just on the right of "Remember this choice" (which probably now is in German for you) click with the mouse and you'll see small 'v' (checked) clicking again it will be unchecked, it's a bit inconvenient, I admit.

Some AV apps prefer expect pulse-audio, so I prefer to include that (and I tend to find apulse solutions problematic/unstable). So would be good if you could add a quick note to remind me the best way to add pulseaudio so it is there on boot.

As zagreb wrote, "pulseaudio --start" is the way to go, you can add simple shell script in ~/Startup
(but to install kde-baseapps seems useless to me, it will install a lot of packages not related to pulseaudio )
Another way (autostart for all users):
Install also obsession (it will make *.desktop files work in /etc/xdg/autostart):

Code:

apt-get install pulseaudio obsession

(you might want to take a look at the 'suggested packages' e.g. install pavucontrol or more)
Then edit /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop and change the 'Exec=...' line to:

Code:

Exec=pulseaudio --start

Alsamixer using pulse:

Code:

alsamixer -D pulse

To make pulseaudio start at boot using a systemd service didn't work for me (tried several possible solutions from the web)

Happy New Year to you also!

Hi Fred,

This method appeals to me (rather than in ~/Startup/somescript), but, trying it on XenialDog32 I find that the volumeicon then doesn't show up. Any idea?

Greetings!
Something funny happens if you upgrade to 17.10 - boot process stops dead at some point and nothing happens (everything is green [ok]). BUT you can switch to another tty and login/startx to desktop no problem and system seems to be working fine.

Turned out now you REQUIRE display manager to ligin to system. Installed SLiM and voila boot process continued straight to SLiM! I just need to learn how to configure SLiM to autolog or something. Or maybe find something different.
